Emergency Plumber FAQ

Help, I have a plumbing emergency!

What should you do when you locate a plumbing disaster? Safety first! If there is water anywhere near electrical outlets or appliances, the immediate first step is to turn off the electricity at the power panel. Then, attempt to reduce any further leaking or flooding.

If there is still water leaking, turn off the isolating valve to the appliance or fixture if possible, or go immediately to the main valve for your property. If you’re unable to find a tap to turn off, then you can try turning on all the cold water taps inside and outside your residence to depressurise the pipework and reduce the leak.

Now give our on call plumbers a ring, any hour day or night. We will be at your home as soon as we can to save the day.

In the meantime, begin wiping up any water, position a bucket to catch any drips, and clear away important items from the area. If the house water is turned off, then also switch off the heating for the hot water.

I don’t know where the main water tap is!

You might know the main valve as a stopcock, isolating valve or toby. This valve is normally positioned on the boundary near the road, usually under a blue or black cover.

Remember, many appliances and fixtures have their own isolating taps also.

Can I unblock the drain myself?

We endorse attempting to clear simple blockages with a plunger if you have one. However, if you do not have one, or it doesn't clear the blockage, we do not recommend chemicals as they seldom do a good job, and may even cause more damage to your drains.

Do not let obstructed drains ruin your day. Ring our urgent Valley Heights emergency plumbers now!

How can I stop the dripping sound temporarily so I can get some peace and quiet?
